Dr. Foing was such a helpful, &nbsp;sharing and inspiring host,&nbsp;we all left ESA with so much knowledge and motivation for our continued work with SPACE and GSO.<\/p>\n

But making an opera about the moon village will not happen by itself. We need help from students! And Wednesday we left for an elementary school in the North of Holland, where we met a group of 50 creative and curious children.<\/p>\n
